OpenVMS ALPCLUS01_070 Alpha 6.1 - 7.0 SCS.EXE ECO Summary

Modification Date: 23-APR-1998 Modification Type: DOCUMENTATION: Editorial Modification NOTE: An OpenVMS saveset or PCSI installation file is stored on the Internet in a self-expanding compressed file. The name of the compressed file will be kit_name-dcx_vaxexe for OpenVMS VAX or kit_name-dcx_axpexe for OpenVMS Alpha. Once the file is copied to your system, it can be expanded by typing RUN compressed_file.

OP/SYS: OpenVMS Alpha COMPONENT: SYS$SCS.EXE SOURCE: Digital Equipment Corporation ECO INFORMATION: ECO Kit Name: ALPCLUS01_070 ECO Kits Superseded by This ECO Kit: None ECO Kit Size: Saveset A - 162 Blocks Saveset B - 162 Blocks Saveset C - 162 Blocks Saveset D - 180 Blocks Cover Letter - 6 Blocks Total of 4 files - 672 Blocks Kit Applies To: OpenVMS Alpha V6.1, V6.1-1H1, V6.1-1H2, V6.2, V6.2-1H1, V7.0 System/Cluster Reboot Necessary: Yes ECO KIT SUMMARY: An ECO kit exists for SYS$SCS on OpenVMS Alpha V6.1 through V7.0.

The problem is due to a node having zero send credits. Most frequently, the connection manager SYSAP (VMS$VAXcluster) is the SYSAP effected. This behavior can also occur when a connection is reformed. Problems Addressed in the ALPCLUS01_070 kit for OpenVMS Alpha V6.2, V6.2-1H1, V7.0 o Incorrectly allocating a new CDT (Connection Descriptor Table) for an incoming connection request. This ultimately exhausts the CDT list resulting in Cluster instability, loss of connectivity and inability to reform a cluster.
